Her Heart Or Her Kingdom?

Chp-14 Never-ending sadness & Harsh circumstances.

Zacharias's P.O.V

Suddenly I hear an ear piercing scream and I immediately know it's Amaani making me run to my utmost capacity.

"AMAANI! GOD GET THAT TRAITOR!," I ferociously yell out as I get out into the Royal Garden.

I'm shocked at the sight of my guards falling to the ground bleeding or either already dead. I growl, I knew it. I knew it was too good to be true! I will get you Prince Arjun and make you pay!

Pulling my sword out of my sheath and I charge yelling, "CALL MORE GUARDS! SOLDIERS! ALSO THE ROYAL DOCTOR!"

I push and stab one his guards and the kick another behind me. You have have taken my Queen! MY Queen! I glare and hiss slashing my sword on another stupid guard making him fall to the floor spluttering out blood.

I pick up the guard by his collar, and grind my teeth saying, "Where. Did. He. Take. Her."

The guard stays silent continuously bleeding and I yell at him the same question before. I hear the clinking and clattering of swords. My guards against Arjun's.

"I w-will. Not b-betray-" I cut him off by stabbing him once more killing him. No use of getting answers.

I help my soldiers getting a few cuts myself. Eventually it ends. Looking around I see several injured and dead soldiers mostly Arjun's and both my soldiers. I hiss looking away and the royal doctor looks after me and the remaining guards.

As I get taken to my bed I look around our room. It's empty. My precious Amaani, is gone. My Queen is gone. I let out a yell of frustration and the door opens revealing several maids questioning me as to what's wrong. This irritates me further.

I bellow, "GOODNESS SAKE! LEAVE ME ALONE! ALL OF YOU! I DO NOT WISHED TO BE DISTURBED!"

The maids yelp and close the door running off. Finally. Amaani...I told you. Why are you sometimes so naive? I-I don't know how the kingdom will react. They will react ferociously and won't listen. They won't listen unless you are here. I'm sorry for all the yelling at you but I did it out of compassion and care.

"Why God is this all happening? Why are you making her suffer like this?," I question holding to gold cross on my marriage chain. Oh Amaani...my Queen..

I touch my cheek and I feel a wet substance. Tears. Me? I'm crying..? A King doesn't cry. Why am I crying then? More tears come out. Why do I feel so vulnerable..so weak? I'm supposed to be strong, a leader, not let my emotions get the best of me. Then..why.

My Queen you have defeated me. You have left me a vulnerable king. You have made me laugh, smile, be affectionate. You have disobeyed by doing things I don't like. You've been stubborn. However...I absolutely cherish those traits about you. You are quiet and shy but to me and the kingdom, in a time of need, you are confident and bold.

My heart beats rapidly as I wipe away the tears quickly not wanting anyone to see me in this state. I take a deep shaken breath. I told you Amaani..we shouldn't of let that traitor come here.

It's also very much my fault. I let my jealousy get the best of me! I was jealous of the way they were together, but I know she knows her boundaries. I-I'm so royally idiotic. I shouldn't of ever left her side. Left her with Arjun.

Stupid negotiations! That traitor and his father will pay deeply! I will make them bow in front of Amaani and beg for forgiveness! Even if it's the last thing that I, as King Zacharias Abraham do!

Putting a hand to my forehead, I let out a deep sigh. I hope they haven't hurt you too much Amaani. Don't worry, god is with you and don't worry I will be too. Soon.
